Resent Reject, Regret By Aqua Summers Chapter 268
Chapter 268 Besides, You Still Have Me
“You’re leaving tomorrow?” Deirdre was jolted back to reality, and her grip tightened ever so slightly.
“So soon?”
“It’s not soon. I’ve already stayed for two weeks. Don’t you worry, I’lle back when my treatment is
completed.” Maeve caressed Deirdre’s face and said smilingly, “I hope that when I’m back, you and
Brendan will give me grandchildren so I can dote on them.”
Deirdre’s lips moved, and she felt her heart wrench in pain and bitterness. She
wanted to tell her, “You were supposed to have a grandchild, but it was taken cruelly by Brendan
because its existence went against his wishes.”
“What time will you be departing tomorrow?”
“In the morning, at around ten o’clock, I guess. Why, would you like to see me off?”
“Hmm!” Deirdre suppressed the urge to cry. “I don’t know when I will be meeting you again. Mother, you
must take good care of yourself ande back soon.”
Maeve hugged Deirdre with a dreary look in her eyes. She’d think about how great it would be if
Deirdre was her biological daughter asionally, as her real daughter was a disappointment…
The door was opened, catching both of them by surprise. Brendan halted to a stop when he saw the
mother and daughter holding each other lovingly..
Maeve wiped her face and said smilingly, “Since you’re here, I’ll head outside, Brendan.”
“Hmm.”
Maeve walked past Brendan to head outside. Meanwhile, Charlene looked at Maeve’s silhouette with
cold eyes from another spot in the corridor and asked the young woman next to her, “Do you know
her?”
The woman said through clenched teeth, “Yes, of course! That is my mother!”
“Ah?” Charlene narrowed her beautiful eyes gradually. “Are you sure? I hope you haven’t mistaken
someone else for her because she is the mother of another woman now.”
“How could I possibly mistake someone else for my mother! I was just thinking about the fact that I
haven’t been able to get in touch with her all of a sudden recently. So it turns out that she istching on
to a wealthy family by bing someone else’s
stepmother!” The woman was so furious that her entire body was shaking. She was carrying a fake LV
handbag, while Maeve was dressed in branded clothes.

‘Is this what a decent mother is supposed to be like?’
“No! I have to confront her now!” The woman was about to approach Maeve impulsively
Charlene hastily stopped the woman and said, “Hold on.”
Charlene’s n would be ruined if the woman got into a conflict with Maeve now.
Charlene sneered and said, “Not only will you not get paid if you confront her so impulsively now, but
she will send you away. Wait for my arrangements, and I promise you that your mother won’t run away.
Not only that, but I will pay you arge sum of money so you can show your friends that you’re a
wealthydy.”
The woman was so hot-tempered that she was an unusually fine candidate to be manipted. She
immediately stopped walking as soon as she heard about therge sum of money. She said eagerly,
“Sure! I’ll abide by your orders if you pay me.”
Deirdre sniffed after Maeve left the room. She kept her head lowered, and her eyes reddened with
tears. However, Brendan noticed her reaction.
He took a step forward, tilted the woman’s chin, and scrutinized her face, only to see her moist eyes
and sad facial expression. He frowned a little and said, “What’s going on? Why are you crying?”
Deirdre was embarrassed. “It’s nothing.”
She was about to lower her head, but Brendan refused to let go of her stubbornly, so Deirdre could only
answer, “I’m sad because my mother is going to leave tomorrow.”
Brendan realized that Maeve would be leaving indeed.
If he could do it, he’d arrange for Maeve to continue to stay in Neve and keep Deirdrepany.
However, Maeve was not alone. She had a family too.
“There’s nothing to be sad about. She’s going to receive treatment and she will be back soon.” Brendan
comforted her in a hoarse voice, his eyes burning with passion. “Besides, you still have me.”
